WISH (Waldorf-Inspired Sacramento Homeschoolers) provides support, encouragement, friendship, and a sense of community to Sacramento area home educators who are working with Waldorf methods and ideas. Members include those new to Waldorf ideas as well as ‘veterans.’ All who have a genuine interest in Waldorf ideas and applications are welcome. WISH members create a vibrant community through regular park days, field trips, camping trips and by sharing seasonal festivals. Our weekly meetings are primarily held in natural park settings (rather than playgrounds). There are no specific religious affiliation requirements for our members; members choose their own spiritual paths and respect individual choice in this matter. However, WISH is a “values-based” group that draws interest from those seeking a wholistic environment for their children including healthy food choices and limited media exposure.
